Shaving Cream Tube, 150 ml | Refreshing and Toning, For Men, With Eucalyptus Oil and Menthol, Made in Italy

This stuff is amazing. Obviously it is just shave cream, but at 52 years of age, I can honestly say it is the best I have ever used and I have an annoyingly strong beard. It is so refreshing and softens your beard brilliantly. It doesn't matter how hot you make your brush, the shaving cream goes on cold and cools your face. You can't help but feel a tingle and when massaging the shaving cream into your beard it becomes so silky smooth which allows your razor to glide through it and the bristles just fall away with no problems, leaving your sensitive skin feeling great. I cannot recommend this enough, and this is coming from someone with stupidly sensitive skin and as I have said, an annoyingly strong beard, which equals a bad combination. This really helps.

The first time I used this I used too much cream and it clogged up the razor. You need about one inch of cream and quite a bit of water in the brush. The razor does still clog a bit and needs regular rinsing but it is really worth it. I was genuinely impressed with how good a shave it gives and the skin feels really refreshed afterwords. I am a prorasso convert and will definitely be buying again.

This is a shaving cream, not a foam – and it’s brilliant. Just a small amount, rubbed in with fingers, gives a slick, menthol-laced shave with zero drag or irritation. It’s now my go-to with the Gillette Labs razor, and it leaves my skin cool and soft afterwards. The scent is classic barbershop – clean, fresh, old-school – and the metal tube is a nice touch. Easier to squeeze out every last bit and recyclable, too. Heads-up: It doesn’t lather. That’s not a flaw – it’s meant to stay creamy for closer, smoother contact. Pro tip: You’ll use less than you think, and it’ll last. Ideal if you want a quick shave with no faffing around.

Great shaving cream. Leaves skin refreshed and you are able to get a close shave…

I've just started to shave using a traditional styled double edge safety razor Edwin Jagger De89bl Chrome Plated Double Edge Safety Razor . After researching for many hours the endless creams and soaps available i decided to go for a cream a) because creams are supposedly easier to lather b) i live in a hard water area c) i wanted to start off easy. I chose this one as it seemed to be highly recommended. Well this cream from Proraso is fantastic in many ways... firstly the metal squeezy tube comes in a box and the 150ml tube is bigger than you imagine it to be, the lid is a screw top so for travel purposes it's not going to come off easily. The cream is "pearl white" in colour and at first has a thick concentrated form, meaning you don't need much (almond size) as when you whip it up in a bowl there is more than enough for 3 shaving passes. Now this cream has eucalyptus and menthol which you can smell once you start whipping it up although it's not overpowering, indeed it smells nice and refreshing, almost like an old school barbers. I won't give directions as to how to use this cream but if you go on Youtube you can find many good videos especially from "geofatboy". The only thing i will add is if you live in a hard water area like me you will probably need slightly more cream and use warm not hot water. When you place it on your face ideally using a badger shaving brush (the one i bought is the For Him by Tweezerman Deluxe Shaving Brush ) you can feel the cooling effect of the menthol on your skin and the pleasant smell of eucalyptus. This last for the whole time the cream is on your face, indeed the cooling effect becomes stronger on your second and third pass. It acts as a good moisturizer and gives a nice slick shave due to this cream having Glycerin in it. PROS: provides a nice luxury lather, smells great, cools your face, very slick, squeezy tube is convenient and ideal for travel, will last a long time, Paraben free! CONS: as i live in a hard water area it takes me a good minute or two longer to get the desired effect but it's nothing to worry about. VERDICT: This is the first proper shaving cream i have used and i'm impressed, it reduced the irritation i use to get during shaving and the nice cooling effect of the menthol was great. Even though the water in my area is hard i was able to generate a decent lather to get three passes out of a small amount, it just took a little longer to whip up. I intend to try other shaving creams but until i do i will enjoy using this cream. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! ...any questions please post a comment and i'll get back to you a.s.a.p!

Nice feel and great smell, applies easily to stubble pre wet shave. I have noticed no nicks, cuts or razor burn since using and my skin feels fresh and invigorated. As someone who doesn’t like facial hair, but finds shaving a chore, this has been an essential find.

Excellent product and very well priced

I like to be clean shaven and for a long time used an electric razor. About a year ago I switched to wet shaving with a safety razor, which I absolutely love. Feels so close and fresh, I’ve not looked back to electric shaving. However I have been having some sensitivity issues on my skin from the safety razors I use. I’ve tried lots of different products and the closet thing I found that helped was TOBS sandalwood pre shave oil. The downside with this was that it clogged up my brush and left my sink in a bit of a mess. It also wasn’t perfect, but did a good job. Then I tried this Proraso pre shave cream and my shave was perfect. No irritation or nicks. I’m usually left with a bit of a rash on one side of my face, none of that after my shave today using proraso pre shave cream. I highly recommend this product, especially to anyone with sensitive skin. And for the price, it’s very good value for money.

A while back, frustrated by razor burn and ingrown hairs, I took to the internet to find a solution. I had a heavy beard, with skin that was dry and sensitive. I hated shaving, my face was read, burning and bleeding when I was done shaving, and I couldn't use an expensive blade for more than a week. One thing I was introduced to was wetshaving. Wetshaving can best be described as "old time" shaving. Wetshaving is far superior to the shaving technique that most men use today, and has greatly improved my shaving experience, and I don't dread shaving like I used to. Wetshaving soon became the search for the perfect shave. Trying to get a balance between a smooth well groomed face, and no irritation. In fact, as many can attest, it soon became an obsession. Over the last few years I have tried dozens of different razors, shaving creams, pre-shave oils,shaving bowls, badger brushes, aftershave balms and lotions, to find the perfect shave. I have bought everything from the highest end shaving creams at thirty or forty dollars a jar, to five dollar shave soaps. Having said all of that, Proraso is my favorite cream of all. It is an Italian produced cream that is very well respected by those who are "shaving gourmets." The one thing that you must know about Proraso is it has menthol, and eucalyptus, and lots of it. It has been described as having a cooling or even bracing sensation, so much so that some guys don't like to use it in the winter. It also has a very strong and unique smell. Some say it smells medicinal, I think it smells like an Italian sewer to be honest. So why do I think it is the best cream? Well, 1st it is a great value for the money. While it may look expensive, when using a brush, you only need an almond sized amount in your bowl for a clean shave. So a tube will last you 3 months easy. It is essentially no more expensive than the dried out gunk they sell in aerosol cans at your local drugstore and yet it performs as well as something 3x's the price. Second, it produces a rich lather that has a slickness to it, which I believe is one of the most important parts of a good shave. A slick shaving cream means less drag from the razor. Third, it is great for guys like me who have thick beards. Some prefer a lighter lather, but I have found that with a thick beard you need all the protection you can get. Fourth, it comes in a tube, which I prefer to a shaving soap (soaps dry out my face) and to tubs. I travel a lot and I find it easier to travel with a tube then with a tub, just fits in my Dop bag better for some reason. Also, I have found that creams you get in a tube (and Proraso especially) can still give you a good shave without a brush.Some other brands say they will give you a good shave with or without a brush, but not true in my experience. I don't take my brush with me when I travel, and the fact that I can still get a good lather while traveling is a big plus. Fifth, I like the cooling (bracing effect) that I described earlier. If you are like me and ingrown hairs and razor burn are your main worries, washing off your face with cold water after you shave is nice, kind of like putting an ice pack on an inflamed knee, it dulls the irritation. Finally, it works great with the other products in the line. I have never liked pre-shave oils because, while they do protect the face, they make it harder to apply shaving cream and gunk up your razor. However, with the Proraso preshave it is different. It is not an oil, but a paste, so it seems to come off easier (however, take it easy with the preshave, put on too much and it will actually produce a burning sensation from all the menthol). Also, I really like the Proraso aftershave, not too thick not too thin.Put them all together and you can get a very good shave. If you don't want to spend the money on the Proraso aftershave, the Nivea Sensitive Balm is great too and half the price and available at most drug stores. One thing that I must mention is that Proraso is sold in America as Bigelow Shaving Cream. When I bought a bottle from here I was disapointed that when it arrived from the seller (LCI) it was damaged and unusable.I use amazon for the convenience, I don't have time to box stuff up and ship it back. So I went to the store that carries this product, and found that they had a buy 2 get 1 free sale. So I tossed this one, and just got 3 of the Bigelow creams (exact same ingredients) for 20 bucks plus tax. Now I am set for the next few months.

He pasado de las espumas de afeitar en spray al jabón con brocha y, finalmente, a esta crema de afeitar Proraso verde, que combina comodidad y calidad profesional. En mi vídeo se aprecia cómo, con aprox. 1,5 cm de crema y una brocha, genero una espuma densa y homogénea. El eucalipto y el mentol proporcionan un frescor tonificante que se nota desde la primera pasada, dejando la piel suave y menos irritada incluso en afeitados diarios. Su aroma clásico y limpio completa una experiencia muy agradable. El tubo de 150 ml cunde muchísimo, por lo que la relación calidad-precio es excelente. Ideal para quienes buscan un afeitado suave, fresco y con el toque tradicional de barbero, pero con la practicidad de una crema moderna.

Amazing! In a pinch you can use this as shaving cream. As as a base layer, it makes shaving so much better and the smell is refreshing. Will buy again

I think any man who's found his way here cares about the shaving ritual just as much (if not more so) than the results. Honestly, these days a disposable razor cartridge, though more expensive than a more traditional shave with a double sided safety razor, does the job just fine, with no more than a splash of water. When I travel, I leave my full shaving kit at home, pack a Gillette Fusion, and don't bother with shaving cream when I'm at the hotel. It doesn't cut up my face, it's not as close a shave, but it's a perfectly serviceable and very quick method of keeping the hairs on my face appropriately short. The blades even have some lotion built in now. I imagine electric razors are pretty good these days too. What attracted me to an older style wet shave was the ritual, the meditation. When you stand in front of a sink and spend more than the absolutely necessary amount of time maintaining your beard hairs, it's a quiet time to think, do something traditional, and frankly indulge yourself a bit in a classy, manly way. You save money in the long run, certainly, and you do get a closer shave, but the time you spend doing it has other benefits as well. It's a time when you can slow down, take your time to do something right, reward yourself with a luxury you've earned. I frequently think about my grandfathers shaving in much the same way. Often I just think about things I wouldn't have time for otherwise. The ritual is a great way to center oneself at the start of the day before things get busy. I could shave in less than a minute from start to finish, but I choose not to when I'm at home. Taking time to shave more traditionally, more carefully, it absolutely worth it most days. Proraso has a well-deserved reputation for its shaving soap. I use it, I love it, it's the only soap I use. Paired with a silvertip badger brush, it produces the best lather I've ever seen, and the best shave possible. The Italians know shaving, and those green tubs of Proraso shaving soap are iconic. It does take time to get the brush and soap ready, however. I'm sure I don't need to tell you guys, shaving this way is best not rushed, and each step needs to be followed with the proper care and attention. While that's going on, however, there is another aspect of the shaving ritual that should be followed, and that is the preparation of the face to be shaved. It's good to wet the face of course, and the best time to shave is right after a shower, while the hairs and skin are moist and supple. I would postulate that another step can be done to achieve an even better shave. That step, is the product you are considering buying right now. Proraso claims that the combination of ingredients in this pre-shave cream will make the skin and hairs softer and make your shave easier. I can't contradict those claims. I have found that since I began using this product several years ago, I've cut myself less. I can't say for certain if it's the stubble offering less resistance to the blade, the skin being healthier and less likely to be damaged, or simply the slickness of the cream under the shaving soap helping the blade glide more easily. Perhaps it's all three. I can tell you it has a lovely cooling effect on the skin, and the scent is, as many have reviewed, quite pleasant. My girlfriend loves it, and who am I to argue with her wanting to put her face near mine? As suggested, I put the cream on my face immediately after a shower, or after wetting my face if I'm shaving at some other time of day. I then let it sit, while I get the rest of my ritual set up. By the time the soap is ready, I've got plenty of great lather in my brush, and everything else in place, the pre-shave cream has really done its work, soaked into the skin and hairs, and I can apply the shaving soap confidently knowing I'm going to have a great shave. After shaving, I clean up, apply my alum block, and generally don't find many if any cuts. I use an aftershave balm just to keep the skin healthy until my next time shaving, but I always like to start with this stuff here. The whole process does take a while, but if you're wondering if it's worth it, adding a pre-shave cream, for me the answer is a definite yes. I wouldn't say I have particularly sensitive skin, but with the dry air where I live, especially in winter, I try to take care of it as best I can. I've noticed my forehead, which I obviously don't shave, and don't use this product on, does tend to get irritated by the dry winter air more readily than the skin I run a razor across most days, and I think the combination of this product and my aftershave balm are responsible. The jar does last a while, so if you just want to try it out first, pick up a single jar and buy another when you start getting low, but it'll be a while.

Bardzo wydajny, świetnie się pieniący o delikatnym efekcie chłodzącym. Ekonomiczne i ekologiczne opakowanie. Polecam.
